As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

But Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.

Others said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.

And they answered, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.

But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.

But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:

For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
